29 January 2021 | Innovation and change in a Responsible Art Market


This year’s RAM conference will look at the “new normal” resulting from the global COVID-19 pandemic. In the past year, the way the art market interacts, communicates and transacts has changed indefinitely, bringing with it new opportunities as well as new challenges and risks.


With more business being done online and less face to face contact, how can we harness these new opportunities whilst managing the associated challenges and risks? Is due diligence more important than ever in a digital art world? What legal risks does this “new reality” entail?


Furthermore, as the global art market becomes more connected than ever, what developments should we watch out for in 2021 in market jurisdictions such as the United Kingdom, the United States and China?
